Diego Rosa wins 5th Basque Country stage, Henao takes lead (The Associated Press)
Diego Rosa of Italy completed an impressive solo ride to win a mountainous fifth stage of the Tour of Basque Country on Friday as Colombian Sergio Henao took over the lead. Astana rider Rosa separated from an early breakaway group and stayed well in front of the pack for over 100 kilometers (62 miles) while crossing the route’s eight summits in steady rain and low temperatures. ”My legs gave me the answers I was searching for, and I didn’t look back until I’ve seen the arch of the finish” Rosa said.
